> When did you first start? I started rapping at like 13 then soon after I started writing all as a hobby and a stress reliever.
> I took it serious for about a year at 16, and came back to it about a year and a half ago.

> Why did you decide to start it? I started rapping the music on the radio and all that because I LOVE music. I listen jazz, hip hop, r&b, rap, some rock and roll, blues, old school. I am not really picky when it comes to what I’m willing to listen to. With my writing it started off as poetry then I started putting together my own rhymes. I write short stories, poems, lyrics, there was a time when I even started to write (actually draw out notes) a composition. Traced out the Treble Clef and everything because I use to play the piano, flute, baritone and trumpet. SO music was the only thing I turned to deal with growing up started off listening, then writing, then rapping.

> Are you a solo Artist or part of group? I am a solo Artist, have done many features SHoutout to My bro Kultur3, Lyrik, Tae Bandz, Ike B Muzik, Moe Davon- Worldwide Core Radio, man I could go down a list but Imma old my composer.

> What name do you go by? My rap is Vydell, Vydell Hutchinson

> How did you come up with the name? When I was a kid, I had a group of friends that I use to rap with. At that time my writing and rapping was pretty dark and they gave me that name, and I just stuck with it.

> Who do you like to collaborate with? No 1 person in particular, I just like to make HITS. As long as there is a beat, a subject and time- I LOVE IT

> Where do you play? There is no 1 place, I ONLY perform. If I don’t have to work nor tend to my family I WILL do a show. Don’t get me wrong I have been asked to perform a few times but when that is NOT going on then I like to pick and choose my showcases or just come out to show support.
